ASUS X99 Rampage V Extreme Review - Product Showcase

Here you can see the PCI-Express 3.0 slots. Just drop them graphics cards in there for a weird sexy combo, the lowest it'll drop to is a x4 lane configuration depending on your processor of course. You will have excellent bus bandwidth for current generation graphics cards as you are still using Gen 3.0 PCI Express lanes. The design is very recognizable and works really well in a black chassis we think. 

Every inch of the motherboard has been chucked full with something. You have multiple connectors extra for USB 3.0, USB 2.0 and well... just look. Considering this is an EATX size motherboard you can see there is hardly any room left for anything. I counted 8 fan connectors and three thermal sensor connectors as well.

 

The ROG Rampage V Extreme comes with SupremeFX 2014 to minimize electromagnetic interference (EMI), premium ELNA audio capacitors and 8-channel gold-plated audio output ports offer precision-engineered audio that is on par with dedicated soundcards. This fifth generation of ROG Rampage motherboards features new ROG audio technologies such as Sonic SenseAmp, which detects headphone impedance and automatically adjusts the built-in amp; and the Sonic SoundStage button, which provides an easy way to apply the best audio settings for popular game genres like FPS, racing, combat, and sports.

Rampage SupremeFX technologies also come with Sonic Studio, a brand new audio tuning suite that has a one-click Virtual Surround function for 7.1-channel audio even on a 2-channel stereo headset. It also features detailed settings for Reverb, Bass Boost, Equalizer, Voice Clarity, and Smart EQ to tailor audio to users’ preferences.
 

Once powered up you'll notice that the audio circuity has been isolated from the rest of the motherboard. A nice red lit trace shows exactly that.

More LEDs though as you can find LEDs (red) underneath the motherboard. So once you have it installed in your PC the following happens. You can spot them being reflected on the test-bench plexi-glass.
 

Yeah, looks good. And considering we receive red heatsink based DDR4 memory, we finally have a nice color combination going on here. Woohoo :)
